The Importance of Backing Up Your Files

No matter how many times I say it, some people never learn.

So many times when I respond to a computer repair call, I find myself trying to salvage someone's computer that have been ravaged by numerous viruses. More often than not, the owner has not kept any backup of their important files and they plead with me to somehow recover their files.

Sometimes, I can recover them with no problem. Sometimes, the infection is so bad that their files have become corrupted and there is just no way to get a clean copy back out.

The lessons here: Never for an instant believe that your computer will never die!

Please, make a back up of your files and put them on a portable/external drive or at the very least on a CD/DVD. This will help you imensely if and when your computer has to be reformatted.

Not Another Laptop!!!!

I know it's been a while since my last post. I've been really busy with work.

As you may have noted from the title of this post, I have purchased another laptop to add to my what seem to be a growing collection of portable computers. Usually I buy a laptop as a replacement or upgrade, but this purchase was neither.

As more and more people decided to use their $600 dollars from the government to buy a new computer, I am being faced a lot more questions about Windows Vista from many of the people that I provide tech services to. Having only one system with Vista, I was hesitant to use this machine as a testing/experimental machine. So, I decided to find the cheapest laptop at BestBuy and use that as machine to test program compatibilities and various settings.
